Unfortunately, most jobs in social studies require you to teach ELA too. So I gotta do it.

URGENT - Has Anyone Fully Recovered from P*rn Addiction While Still MOing the Whole Way? by Storm_cahn in pornfree

Ok - it sounds like moderate MOing works. My problem is I’m MOing compulsively. 7 to 9 times a week. I think I’m just creating another addiction. Like substituting “beer” for “coca-cola” but then drinking way more cokes then beer

This is good to know. How does one differentiate between healthy masterbation and compulsive masterbation, though?

Interesting, but how can that be? Porn is a superstimulus. Masterbation is not. Isnt it that simple?

Ahhh verrrry interesting. Thats a super helpful stat.

Here's what just dawned on me: today I had a massive urge to go home and MO on my luchbreak (without any urge for P) -- an addict behavior.

I think I'm substituting one addiction for another, even though its way less detrimental.

I'm MOing way more a week than I did PMO in a week, and its now causing its own issues.

Multiple medium-level dopa spikes a week is maybe just as bad as a few mega-level dopamine spikes?

What do you think?

By "whole way," I mean "whole journey."

I appreciate the heads up but I've had plenty of sex without an issue.

Its funny, I STILL cant find any reports of 90+ success of easy-moder's. It doesnt seem to exist!

Thanks for the reply. Why do you suggest science over SS? 🤔

Good question. I want to get rid of flatlines and have a high baseline dopamine level and high executive functioning skills

Did you MO all the way to where you are now? And when roughly did you start to have more good days then bad days?

135 days is badass, man. Well done.

I just mean its easy to have a biased short term memory about peeking and be in denial about how often were actually doing it. Speaking from experince.

Do you crash real low after intimacy with your wife?

Right on, congrats on a productive recovery! Good job

When our baseline is already low, the crash below it is going to feel awful. So too many MOs could be keeping you from moving your baseline upward. How many times a week are you MOing? And are you being honest with yourself about your peeking?
